Akira Kurosawa’s ‘Ran’ Restoration Is Brilliant On 4k Blu-ray

Lionsgate in association with Studio Canal released Akira Kurosawa’s epic film Ran (1985) to 4k Blu-ray in North America on Nov. 16, 2021 (the film was previously available in 4k as an import). The 2-disc combo edition (first available exclusively in SteelBook packaging from Best Buy) includes a 4k Blu-ray, Blu-ray, and code to redeem a Digital Copy through Lionsgate.com/redeem. Each disc also includes the Special Feature “Ran: The Restoration” that provides viewers with an insider’s look at how Studio Canal restored this classic film. This restoration is brilliant on 4k Blu-ray, and it’s almost as if HDR was made for a film like this. Read a full review of Ran on 4k Blu-ray.
